To think that dh should let me sleep?

I am 39 weeks pregnant. I have spd, nausea, heartburn, painful braxton hicks and am exhausted from looking after my 2 and 4 year old. I could (theoretically, although i will probably be overdue) go into labour and need my energy reserves any time. With all this in mind could my husband not refrain from prodding me awake, and telling me to turn over and snore in the other direction? I am now wide awake, and cannot sleep. Surely at this time my sleep is more important? Is that terribly selfish? I feel like this is just demonstrating a total lack of care or thought but maybe I am over thinking...

Well, I finally fell asleep at half 12 and am now up for the day with two toddlers. Dh is still fast asleep of course, he can get to work on time if he gets up at 8, so very rarely gets up before then. All feels very unfair! I am going to buy him earplugs this morning!

Even more annoyed now because he has only just got up. I have been up 2 1/2 hours and taken ds to preschool. He could have got up and done that for me! Feeling totally let down.

He's being incredibly selfish. Sounds like you need to have a firm talk.
